Are you sure you have a LR4?. IIRC all LR4s were three row. Perhaps early build 2010? A picture or two would be good.
Yes ha, I know what I bought. It's not an HSE just an LR4.

I just checked an Edmunds review and even in 2016 the base LR4 came standard with 5 seats. I can't imagine that they sold many of them but it stands to reason that the base model in earlier model years had that same seating capacity. Rare!
How is the floor cavity handled when retrofitting those seats back there on a base model? Is it there under some type of removable rigid flooring?
Ouch! Sounds, (and looks) like a complicated and potentially very expensive undertaking. Not just the seats, but side panels, headliner...and then there's the little matter of 'compliant' seat belts! The stock are mechanically retractable and mounted to the roof posts under the vertical panels. And even though I have little use for mine, generally speaking, the third row really enhances the value of the vehicle. You might be able to find what you need out of 'salvage'? Depending on how important that third row is to you, much as I hate to say it, most LR4's available out there have them. Maybe reconsider before you get too far into this one??
Something else odd is that the VIN, when entered in to the system says the car is an HSE, with a backup camera, navigation and 3rd row. All those things are wrong. SO WEIRD
That is probably the fault of the online VIN decoder you may have used. Others have also commented that these are often inaccurate. The one offered by JLR through their TOPIX site is now behind a paywall I'm pretty sure. Good luck with the mod projects!
